Public bug reported: Binary package hint: pidentd
What happens: I get the following error message in my logs: s_open("/var/run/identd/identd.pid", O_WRONLY): No such file or directory The directory /var/run/identd does not exist. If I create the directory and make sure it is owned by the identd user/group, then the error goes away until I reboot (at which point, the run directory seems to be cleaned up). What I expected: No error messages. Suggestions: If you change the pid path to something like /var/run/pidentd.pid, then this should probably work. Alternatively, an init script will have to create the directory or pidentd will have to create the directory.
